Problem Description

For backup set with the temporary directory set to a network volume, the network share session is not cleared after a continuous backup job is completed:

This build up of network share session will eventually cause sub-sequence backups to fail with the following error in the Backup Job Logs (YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm-ss.log) :

[YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss] [info] [backupset_id] NetUse Login:domain\administrator Password:??? Path:\\network\share Error: No more connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as many connections as the computer can accept.

[YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss] [erro] [backupset_id] Failed to access "\\network\share" in destination "Destination Name".

This issue will only affect jobs performed with the Continuous Backup option.
